Old People Cars

According to the Detroit News, this is the list of most popular vehicles for senior citizens.  I have added additional information: which models are discontinued.

1. Lincoln Town Car, 90%

2. Buick Lucerne, 87%

3. Cadillac DTS, 85%

4. Cadillac CTS, 74%

5. Cadillac STS, 71%

6. Hyundai Azera, 25%

7. Chevrolet Impala, 51%

8. Buick LaCrosse, 59%

9. Lincoln MKZ, 54%

10. Toyota Avalon, 54%


The interesting question to me is, what will the old folks buy now that the softly spring boats have mostly gone extinct?

  1. The BMW is one range of cars that has really gained momentum in the current world. It has been referred as one of the best cars in the market as they have shown the good will to their customers. In order to improve their lighting, the bmw hid kit bulbs have been introduced in the market. They are the best kits that can improve your lighting instantly

  2. I have a feeling that that pick-up trucks will start appearing on these geriatric vehicle lists. Trucks have become fancier and easier to drive and with the hefty price tags may still communicate "I lived a successful life." This generation is less likely to worry about peak-oil and man made global warming and is not effected by the stigma of driving a pick up truck.

  5. I think as long as the branding in Lincoln or Cadillac, the seniors will keep buying.
    I am impressed with the new Lincoln sedan, the MKS. It looks like a great driver's car.
    I am approaching "senior status" and will seriously look at one of Ford's premium offerings, along with the Chrysler 300.
    Thanks for the list.
